Behavioural Economics (Reupload)

Hey, it was drawn to my attention that making these little videos members-only on YouTube killed the link for Patrons, so I'm reuploading a few. Many of you may not have seen them - bear in mind they're from years ago, before I showed my face. This one details my views on my own feild of behavioural economics, which is something I don't talk enough about.
